Subject: Letter of Application
Below you’ll find my application letter to join a professional writing team as required by the course outline. I definitely valued the structural elements set out for us by the textbook but found myself struggling with stylistic elements, and the self-congratulatory nature of writing this type of letter.
The Letter of Application reviews my:
- Academic history at the University of British Columbia
- Work history as an Editor for The Ethnograph
- Approaches to research methodologies with at-risk populations
- Strengths as a writer and researcher
Please review the document below and offer up and critiques you may have. Constructive criticism is a vital aspect of becoming a skilled writer and greatly appreciate any feedback you may have.
Yours,
Zachary Goldman
